Intended use

Vestfrost biomedical freezers are designed to provide reliable temperature stability and precision

and ensure an ideal cold temperature storage for sensitive items is achieved. The products are

designed for the following operating ranges:

WARNING: This unit is not a “rapid-freeze” device. Freezing large quantities of liquid,

or high-water content items, will temporarily increase the chamber temperature and will cause

the compressors to operate for a prolonged time period. Avoid opening the door for extended

time periods since chamber temperature air will escape rapidly. Also, keep the inner doors closed

as much as possible. When room air, which is higher in humidity, replaces chamber air, frost may

develop in the chamber more rapidly.
